Abstract

The Japanese-US beef trade issues are discussed and a proposal put forth to feed cattle for 240 days in order to achieve higher quality grades and prices for US beef exported to Japan. Contrary to popular opinion. US grain-fed beef is not considered higher in quality than chilled grass-fed beef from Australia in the Japanese market because the Japanese quality grading system places much greater emphasis on marbling. Results indicate the longer fed beef concept may be a better alternative for the US than continuing to seek full liberalization of exports, although further analysis is needed before this can be stated with certainty.
